McLaren had a difficult start to Formula 1 pre-season testing when Fernando Alonso's car lost a wheel after just six laps in Spain.
The two-time champion lost control at the last corner of Barcelona's Circuit de Catalunya when his right rear wheel came off.
Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo set the fastest time ahead of Mercedes' Valtteri Bottas.
Alonso and McLaren recovered to set the seventh fastest time of the day.
McLaren blamed a "wheel nut issue" and Alonso lost valuable running in the best conditions.
Alonso was initially classified fifth but was demoted to seventh when it was confirmed he had cut the chicane on his fastest lap to ensure he was not delayed by Toro Rosso's Brendon Hartley.
